Oh look, JT not framing a strike again

 

[Halladay]

I feel better about Seranthoy than Kimbrel right now. Get up Orion!

 

[litflyersfan]

The guy at the plate looks like the fake Farva from Super Troppers 2.

Edit: Burger

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Someone from ESPN crew should get the hook for this bs.

I'm leaving now

Why does ESPN keep showing a highlight from each game in the middle of an at bat

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Why does ESPN keep showing this montage after every out?

 

[Magua]

Intentional balk. That’s fantastic and gives you confidence in a closer game.

jesus kimbrel

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

You do bullshit like this you better get the f***ing out.

 

[Halladay]

He did that in the game against the marlins in August where they lost in extra innings. Just dropped the ball.

Nice win.

The Good: Wheeler was great. Proved me wrong. Ace performance. Alvarado looked good too.

Righty bats coming through.

The bad: No homeruns. Not gonna win much with the ticky tak approach. Need bombs.

Rob T. Just not a good game manager. Could blame dusty but im sure he was told to be conservative.

The ugly: Kimbrel. Woof. Guy is a blown save waiting to happen. Needs a 3 run cushion at least.

Somebody said you got a new friend
Does she love you better than I can?

 

[Sombastate]

That game felt way closer than it rightfully was. Glad to be up

 

[Jack Straw]

It was a good game. I was entertained.

1 DOWN, 12 TO GO!!

I muted ESPN and listened on radio. Larry Andersen was practically plotting the umps death lol

 

[Gregor Samsa]

Everyone with a hit except Marsh it looks like, at a quick glance. Consistent bats could go a long way. They have to get better at driving in runs though. I’d be curious what the relationship is between championship teams and 2 out RBI’s and AVG with RISP.

Pitching was great. Wheeler is an ace. Bullpen did it’s job

We won. Great win. Win 1 of the next 2 and onto the next series. Keep Nola on a short leash

Same here. I thought he was going to charge out of the booth and physically assault the home plate ump.

This game should be called once upon a Rojas.

I think when it’s a 1-run game, you see Kimbrel earlier and wait on Alvarado. That sounds backwards but Alvarado is always going to go into the highest leverage situation.
